US-based Heffernan Insurance Brokers has formed an alliance with TrustLayer to automate insurance verification by providing customers with access to a risk management platform powered by artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

The partnership is based on TrustLayer’s AI-based collaborative risk management platform that facilitates faster and improved proof of insurance verification.

Using the platform, Heffernan customers will be able to better manage their risk exposures.

For businesses, the administrative burden of insurance verification is high because manual processes and millions of static documents require a change of hands in the US.

The businesses that do take these processes seriously face an enormous threat. Studies have also shown that 75% of vendors do not have sufficient insurance coverage.

TrustLayer leverages robotic process automation (RPA) and AI to automate the insurance verification process safely, thereby allowing firms to automatically validate the insurance and licenses of their vendors, suppliers, borrowers and tenants.
